Six New Jersey stores are among 200 under the Mattress Firm umbrella that will close in the coming days after the

Texas company filed for Chapter 11 bankruptcy last week. In all 700 stores will be shut down.

All the upcoming stores closing in New Jersey are Sleepy's stores, according to court filings.

In court documents, Mattress Firm said the company's previous management team had made several miscalculations as it rebranded more than 1,300 stores it had bought from competitors in the last two years. It has more than 3,200 stores in 49 states.

"While these acquisitions allowed (Mattress Firm) to achieve ... presence in markets where they previously had little to no presence, they also led to 'cannibalization' of sales amongst stores in close proximity to each other," the company said. "As a result, many Mattress Firm stores are in direct competition with other Mattress Firm stores, resulting in disappointing sales."

The company, founded in 1986, has sales of more than $3 billion. But in court documents, the company said in fiscal year 2018, it is projected to lose about $150 million.

In 2016, Mattress Firm was acquired by South Africa-based retailer Steinhoff International Holdings for $3.8 billion.
